Queen Cynthia has already forgotten the last time she cried!
It seemed that she had cried on the day her father, the previous king, died.
After that, whether it was the intrusion of powerful countries or the political disputes in the empire, she never cried. It was not that she didn't want to cry, but that she knew she couldn't cry!
How could the queen of the kingdom shed tears!
However, when she smelled the perfume after using it, she was sure that the perfume was very ordinary and could not even enter her collection, but it made her feel like she had met her father.
When she was a child, her father always liked to hold him in his arms and tell him about the kingdom. She would also tug on his beard, and the two of them would laugh together.
That was when she was happiest.
"Venus, a really good perfume!" After more than ten seconds, Queen Cynthia put away her tears and held the perfume in her hand tightly.
This perfume seemed to let her see what she wanted to see the most. That feeling was something she had never felt with other perfumes before. How should I put it, it was strange, but she really liked it.
"It's a really good perfume." Queen Cynthia was very happy. She hadn't been so happy for a long time.
She straightened her disguise and called the guards to fetch Arya.
At this time, Aria and Vito were in the next room, waiting.
"Aria, you can't defeat me. In fact, the Chamber of Commerce should have been mine. If you are willing to come back, I still welcome you." Vito said kindly as always.
"Stop talking nonsense now, don't you feel disgusted?" Aria just looked at him and ignored him.
He was anxious and didn't know what was going on.
Could it be that the perfume is too strong?
Suddenly, the door opened.
A guard walked in, and Aria and Vito stood up immediately.
The guard glanced at the two of them, and then said: "Aria Kazan, the Queen wants to see you. As for Vito Kazan, you can leave."
As if struck by lightning, Vito glanced at Aria not far away with a look of disbelief.
How can it be?
Arya finally showed a smile on her face and immediately followed the guard up. She was curious about the queen's attitude.
But when he saw the Queen again, the first thing the Queen said was: "I think Venus is a bad name. From now on, she will be called Starlight, the only light among the stars in the sky."
Arya was stunned for a moment and smiled.
"From today on, this fragrance is called Starlight."
Stable.
…
Vito left in despair.
Arya walked away proudly.
Queen Cynthia returned to the hall and sat on her throne, holding the bottle of perfume in her hand.
Queen Cynthia was already accustomed to the cold throne. She lightly sprayed a little perfume again, and then sniffed it. For a moment, a strange attraction walked on her body.
As for crying, that's not the case. The crying that time was just accumulated for too long. After venting, she was still the majestic queen of the empire.
At this time, someone else walked in the hall.
"Queen, Marquis Elena of the Byrne Empire requests to meet again!"
The person who came was a woman, who also exuded the aura of a great knight, but she was a little confused at this time. Looking at the queen, she always felt that the queen today seemed particularly attractive, which made her think...
"Well, Marquis Elena, let him come.!" Queen Cynthia nodded.
"Queen, but didn't you say you were missing last time?" the woman asked doubtfully. She grew up with the queen and had the closest relationship with the queen. At this time, there were only two of them, so she asked.
Queen Cynthia glanced at her and then said: "The Byrne Empire is stronger than the Kingdom of Lorraine, but the Kingdom of Lorraine is richer than Byrne. This is not a good thing.
So you need to give them a warning and wait until the right time to negotiate terms, otherwise they will only think you are weak. "
"Then your Majesty, didn't you tell me yesterday that it's not okay? Why is it okay today." The woman asked strangely.
"It's nothing, I'm just in a good mood." Queen Cynthia glanced at her and said nothing.
"Let's go and see the Marquis of Byrne." Queen Cynthia stepped down from the throne and said calmly.
It was originally planned, but she was in a good mood today, so she decided to advance the process.
As for the reason, it may be that small bottle of perfume.
…
At this time, in a conference hall.
Marquis Elena was sitting in front, looking calm on the surface.
Behind him, there were other people sitting, most of whom looked a little nervous. After being nervous for a while, they might be rejected without hesitation.
"I hope this time it goes smoothly." Marquis Elena looked ahead calmly, thinking.
In fact, Queen Cynthia's repeated rejections have shaken him, who was already very confident, and asked him whether he should lower the conditions or something.
This queen is much more difficult to deal with than imagined.
Just as they were thinking, suddenly, the door in front of them opened.
Queen Cynthia walked in the front, followed by a group of people.
The queen's phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, and she exuded a sense of majesty. The queen who had ruled the kingdom for nearly twenty years had already let other countries know that she was not easy to mess with.
Everyone took their seats.
Marquis Elena took a deep breath and prepared to speak.
"I agree to the alliance, let's talk about the conditions." But before Marquis Elena spoke, Queen Cynthia did.
"ha?"
? ? ?
Marquis Elena choked on her breath and almost couldn't breathe.
At this time, his mind was full of questions, what happened?
Why has the Queen changed so much?
…
the next day.
Eli first received the news that Aria had the Queen's support in the morning, and had returned to the Chamber of Commerce, preparing to clear Vito out. This was normal, so that Eli felt that his efforts were not in vain.
A small amount of investment will soon turn into a huge amount of wealth, which will allow Eli to gain financial freedom in the future.
But the news he received in the afternoon surprised Eli.
The alliance actually succeeded.
This made Eli look at Marquis Elena with admiration. He didn't expect him to turn the situation around so quickly.
But what he didn't know was that Marquis Elena was even more inexplicable than him. He wanted to know why and why!
However, success is only the beginning. The next step is to negotiate the exchange of interests. That is the time for the real confrontation. Marquis Elena will not give up the interests of the empire, and Queen Cynthia will definitely show her skill.
This is expected to take some time.
At this time, the "idle personnel" they brought, such as doctors and scholars, finally began to play a role. They were assigned to various departments in the Kingdom of Lorraine for study and exchange.
Eli and Lemon were assigned to a small team of scholars.
Work on an under-appreciated project together.
